Natasha spent the whole night thinking about the next day. Very early the next morning, she woke up and dressed up. She made sure that she looked exceptionally beautiful and simple for Madame Gu. Natasha wondered why she was trying so hard to impress Madame Gu. It made her remember her date with Henry. She didn't even put in any intentional effort to look beautiful for him. She just did her thing, caring less about how she looked or how pretty she was.After dressing up, she stood in front of her standing mirror and smiled satisfactorily. Natasha walked out of her room after dressing up and met her parents in the sitting room. Her mom walked up to her with a smile and hugged her. "You look beautiful!" Her mom commented. Her dad also smiled at her. They were proud of their daughter. She grew prettier and even sexy. "Make us proud out there, honey," her father told her. She smiled and walked away. When she got outside, Madame Gu's driver was already out there waiting for her. She

It was finally the morning of the ball and everybody was expectant.The ball to the Floater family was not just a party or a gathering of decorative people, it was way more than that. In fact, it was more like a gathering of elites where the people that mattered in the society got to meet and interact with each other. To ever be allowed or gain access to the ball, it must mean that you are among the elites of the society. The Guild family were lucky to be invited to the ball.Only the outward and inward decoration of the building which was to be used for the ball was enough to tell that the ball spoke of nothing but affluence and. Anybody could have easily seen the kind of capital that must have been put into the building. The extravagance of the building could be seen and smelt from miles away.Henry's alarm was the first thing that woke him up from his deep slumber that morning before he opened his eyes to rays of light filtering into his room from the window whose curtains were dr

Henry could not believe his eyes as he stared back at Natasha who had just come into the ballroom with her parents.He knew that it was not a coincidence that they had the same clothes on because his mother had personally picked up his clothes, he was more than certain that she must have picked up Natasha's dress too, she intentionally made them dress up the same on the day of the ball.He cast Natasha a hard glare with his jaw tightened as she looked at him. He knew it wasn't her fault since she equally wasn't aware of the arrangement, but still, he wanted to hate her and get annoyed with her for it since he couldn't direct his anger to his mom who was walking towards Natasha already. In no time, she had enveloped her into a tight hug.They were talking cheerfully but because of the distance, he could not make out whatever it was they were saying. But he did notice one thing though, Natasha kept stealing a glance at him like she could not believe that they were actually putting on t

Henry grabbed his car key and walked out of his room. He stopped abruptly once he was outside his room. He looked down at himself. The suit he wore was too expensive. Everything about his appearance screamed at the Floater's family, and that wasn't how he wanted to appear at the dinner. He decided to honor Ava's invitation to a dinner with her family, and that was where he was headed. "There is no way I would appear there looking this way," he whispered to himself. He walked back into his room and wore a simple brown trouser and a black T-shirt. He stared at himself in front of the mirror. He looked okay, except that his hair was perfect. He used his hands to scatter his hair a bit, dropped his car key on the table, picked up a small bag, and walked away. He boarded a cab outside his house that drove him to Ava's house. He called her once he was outside and informed her that he was waiting for her and she could come and pick him up. Ava was excited when Henry called her. After th

Madame Gu walked into one of the most luxurious restaurants around. She had two of her guards with her, but they didn't go into the restaurant with her. She had asked them to wait by the car since she was sure of her security in the restaurant. She looked around and noticed the table she reserved at a corner. She smiled as she walked ahead and went to sit there. Natasha wasn't there yet, and it was because Madame Gu was a bit too early. She could not stop thinking about how Henry reluctantly agreed to marry Natasha. She was excited about how things were turning out. She didn't need to put in any effort to take Linda out of her son's life. Madame Gu never liked Linda or the idea of her son getting married to her. She wanted some who were powerful, and Natasha came into the picture from heaven. Imagine how powerful they would be with Natasha as a part of the family. She was smiling sheepishly when she saw Natasha walk into the restaurant. She checked the time and smiled even more de
